Hi Folks!

As noted on the groo page of http://www.evanier.com , Sergio has been in a
couple movies.  So just for the heck of it, I bought the movie "To Kill a
Stranger" in which Sergio receives 5th billing behind Aldo Ray, Donald
Pleasance, and Dean Stockwell.  Not a bad cast.  Unfortunately, the movie is
kind of stinky.  But I thought it would be fun to see Sergio in a movie,
especially since he was the bad guy.

Sergio plays a military high-up, if not dictator, of some unnamed two-bit
European country.  Well, it turns out that Sergio's voice is dubbed!!!!!   I
couldn't believe it!  Sergio has a marvelous voice and his accent is very
cool! And considering some of the production values, Sergio having an accent
wouldn't have been weird at all.   I was very disappointed about that aspect
of the film.  Other than that, it was kind of fun to see him be a role so
different from himself.

Anywho, just thought I'd let you know.

Take care -Gary G.

PS  It was also weird to see his mustache trimmed down.
